Patent EP-1072389-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GOKURAKU HIROYUKI
IPC: B29C49/22
Filed: 1998-11-27
Abstract: A molten resin mixed with a foaming agent by means
of an extruder is extruded to form a cylindrical foamed
parison, and the parison is placed in a mold and blow-molded
to obtain a hollow blow-molded foam. 
     In this case, where a polypropylene resin is used
as a base resin, there could not be obtained a molded
foam having a high expansion ratio and a large wall
thickness. 
     In the present invention, for the production of a
blow-molded foam, there is used a base resin which is
mainly composed of a polypropylene resin and has, at 230°C,
a melt tension (MT) of 10 gf or over and a melt flow rate
(MFR) of 0.5 g/10 minutes or over. A foaming agent is
added to the base resin, followed by melt kneading by
means of an extruder under high temperature and high
pressure conditions to provide a foamable melt. This melt
is subjected to extrusion from a circular die 5 and
expanded to form a cylindrical foamed parison 4.
Thereafter, molds 6,6 are clamped, and the parison 4 in a
softened condition is placed in the molds 6, 6, and a
pressurized gas is blown into the parison 4 from a gas
blowing port 7 for blow molding in the form of a hollow
shape conforming to the mold profile to produce a blow-molded
foam.

Abstract: A pressure actuated switching apparatus includes first and second conductive layers and a plurality of discrete spaced apart dots between the first and second conductive layers. The dots serve as a standoff for separating the conductive layers and are fabricated from an insulative, elastomeric polymer foam which can collapse under the application of compressive force applied to the apparatus to allow contact between the conductive layers with minimized dead space. Alternatively, the standoff can include strips of electrically insulative elastomeric polymer foam.

Abstract: A two-part coating system comprises a first part comprising a blend of an
aliphatic polyisocyanate with a non-reactive resin or a liquid epoxide resin and
a second part comprising an aromatic polyamine, such that the two parts when
mixed together and applied to a surface form a rapid-setting impervious
coating. The coating system is suitable for application by spraying using
equipment in which the two parts of the system are first combined at the point
of spraying, at the spray head. In particular the system may be used to apply an
impermeable lining to the internal surfaces of pipelines, for example by means
of a centrifugal spinning head.

Abstract: In methods used for coding audio-visual information start
codes provide a mechanism for easily searching coded
bitstreams e.g. for the beginning of pictures etc. and a
mechanism for resynchronization in the presense of bit
errors. This is achieved by using a unique code for the
start codes i.e. a specific bit pattern that does not
otherwise occur in the data stream. Known implementations
of MPEG start code parser investigates each byte of the
incoming stream to search for the start code. This
requires a lot of time and, if performed by a processor,
needs a lot of the performance of the processor, which is
missed for other tasks. According to the invention the
start code search is divided into a rough search step (R)
and a fine search step (F), wherein the fine search step
(F) is only performed, if the rough search step (R)
detects a certain value for an investigated byte.

Abstract: A large optical preform [303] is made by a modified chemical vapor
deposition (MCVD) process by depositing successive layers of core and cladding
materials onto the inside surface of a rotating glass tube [33] having a hydroxyl ion
(OH - ) level that is less than 0.5 parts per million (ppm) by weight. The tube is then
collapsed inwardly to form a core rod [301] in which the deposited core material [31]
has a diameter that is greater than about 5 millimeters and the deposited cladding
material [32] has an outside diameter that is less than about 15 millimeters. Optionally a
machine-vision system [140,150,160] monitors and controls the diameter of the glass
tube by regulating the pressure within the tube; moreover, the machine-vision system
monitors and controls the straightness of the tube by varying its rotational speed
according to angular position. After the core rod [301] is formed, it may be plasma etched
to remove contaminants, it is overclad with two glass jackets [34,35] having a
hydroxyl ion (OH - ) level that is less than 1.0 ppm by weight thereby creating a large preform
[303] from which about 400 kilometers of singlemode optical fiber can be drawn per
meter of length of preform.

Abstract: In an increased-diameter funnel section and
a almost pyramidal decreased-diameter yoke section
constituting the funnel section of the envelope of
a cathode-ray tube, the outside surface of the yoke
section between a neck connecting portion on which
a neck and the yoke section are coupled and a position
close to a boundary of a increased funnel section, on
which deflection yoke is provided, is shaped so as to
fulfill the following expression:
 0.00 ≦ (α0 - αmin) ≦ 0.04 
   where the index value indicating the degree of
rectangle at the deflection reference position is α0
and the minimum of the index values in the whole area
of the yoke section is αmin. This makes it possible
to provide a cathode-ray tube apparatus which secures
a sufficient strength of the vacuum envelope to
atmospheric pressure even when the yoke section is
made pyramidal and which reduces the deflection power
effectively and thereby fulfills the demands for higher
luminance and higher-frequency deflection.
